ABSTRACT

Groundwater incorporates a high risk of being impure around the areas close to lowlands because of the potential pollution source of landfill leachate. Leachate can also be used via bioremediation as a fertilizer for plant growth. In bioremediation process, microorganism use the contaminants as nutrient or energy source. From the results it can be concluded that the leachate sample collected from Anand had lower amount of COD, BOD, nitrate, nitrite and ammoniacal nitrogen compared to the leachate collected from AMC. Thus, the leachate from AMC had higher content of heavy metals. Biosorption assay was performed to treat the leachate samples which relatively showed decreased amount of heavy metals after the treatment of leachate. Keywords: leachate, COD, BOD, TS, TSS
